Utharine Artifice: Difference between revisions

Utharine Artifice, based on Vaedan, produces a stunning array of [[Droids|droid]] lines and AI neurobrains. Utharine Artifice was once based on the planet Utharine in the [[Valcarian Imperial Republic]], along with its sister company Etharine Artifice. Both companies left eleven years ago, when an aggressive new governor began nationalizing high tech businesses in the sector, ostensibly to "protect" them from anti-[[Valcarian Imperial Republic|Empire]] terrorists.

Utharine opted to settle in the [[Par'tha Expanse]] as a client company of [[House Rettaan]], while Etharine went on to set up shop on the Core world Renithor. Ironically, against all expectations, today it is Etharine which has been taken over, not Utharine. While Utharine continues to enjoy autonomy, Etharine is now but a subsidiary of Myrakin Corp.

Utharine recently lost a key manufacturing plant in a mysterious explosion, which has all but shut down its production of security [[droids]] for at least a year. It is whispered that [[House Barahn]] was behind the strike, since it is widely known that rival houses [[House Rettaan|Rettaan]] and [[House Kerraron|Kerraron]] were the principal contractors for the new [[Droids|droid]] design.
